Price Resigns

Forums:

Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price resigned Friday in the face of multiple investigations into his use of private charter and military jets to travel around the country at taxpayer expense.

A statement released by the White House Friday afternoon said that Price had "offered his resignation earlier today and the president accepted."

President Trump had said multiple times this week that he was "not happy" about the optics of Price's travel.

He should have been FIRED days ago when it first became known.

would be most excellent if Interior Secretary Zinke followed suit and resigned...

Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke and his aides have taken several flights on private or military aircraft, including a $12,000 charter plane to take him to events in his hometown in Montana and private flights between two Caribbean islands.

Three other cabinet officials also took Lear Jets to work.

Betsy DeVos (Education) has been paying for her private jet travel all along. The others, not so much .....  they are just gazillionaires who would never think to take a commercial flight

That's what happens when you appoint swamp creatures to drain a swamp

Cue Thom with a what-about-ism in

In just eight months since Mr. Trump took office, he has fired or lost his chief of staff,
chief strategist, national security adviser, press secretary, two communications directors,
a deputy chief of staff, a deputy national security adviser, the F.B.I. director and numerous other aides and advisers.

Another step in the right direction.

 

I can't believe that the Senate let this guy through.  OK, maybe I can, based on some of the other cabinet members who somehow were appointed.

Lock 'em up!
